EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraved portrait captures the triumphant moment of Hippia, the winning horse in the historic 1867 Oaks Horse Race. The Oaks, one of the most prestigious and longest-running races in the history of horse racing, took place on Epsom Downs in Surrey, England on June 7, 1867. Hippia, a chestnut mare, was ridden by jockey J.P. Webster and owned by the influential 7th Earl of Ilchester. The 1867 Oaks was particularly significant as it marked the first time that the race was run under the new rules of the Jockey Club, which included the introduction of the weight-for-age system and the requirement for horses to carry specific colors. These changes were designed to make the race fairer and more transparent, and they set the template for modern horse racing. Hippia's victory was hard-fought, as she held off the challenge of favorite filly Flying Fox by a length and a half to win the race. The image of Hippia, with her ears pricked forward and her powerful muscles tensed, perfectly encapsulates the excitement and drama of the race. The engraving, produced by a skilled artist, captures every detail of the horse's coat, the jockey's determined expression, and the elegant curves of the rider's silks. This print is a testament to the rich history of horse racing and the enduring allure of the sport. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the thrill of the race was as powerful as it is today. Whether you are a horse racing enthusiast, a history buff, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty and grace of a winning horse, this image is sure to inspire and delight.
